Here we can have both use_pdc_tx and use_dma_tx set to true. To avoid this, we
can do:

if (atmel_use_pdc_tx(port)) {

} else {
	atmel_tx_request_dma(atmel_port);
}

or force use_pdc_tx to 0 in atmel_tx_request_dma function when we set
use_dma_tx to 1.

I prefer the second one since using dma has a higher priority than using pdc
contrary to the first one.
